Rheumatology Podiatry

Our podiatry service helps you understand your condition and how to look after your feet. We provide simple, practical advice and exercises that are tailored to your needs, so you can manage your symptoms more confidently at home.

If you need more specialised care, our team can arrange for you to see a rheumatology specialist podiatrist.

Conditions we treat

There are over 100 conditions linked to rheumatology. The most common ones we see include:

  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Ankylosing spondylitis
  • Psoriatic arthritis
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus

Specialist support

Our rheumatology specialist podiatrist provides assessment, treatment and self-management advice for all stages of these conditions—from newly diagnosed patients to those with long-term issues.

We work closely with a range of healthcare professionals, including:

  • Doctors
  • Specialist nurses
  • Pharmacists
  • Allied Health Professionals (AHPs)
  • Community podiatry teams

This team approach means you receive the right care and advice, tailored to you.

Where possible, we provide care locally in your community. This means you may not need to travel to Ballymena Health and Care Centre for specialist podiatry support
